Erika Peterson
The former roommate of Shannon Berry, and therefore the buffer to her insanity. Pray she is not corrupted. XD
Minus a few random things she did not recognize as anime, Erika has been watching since Sailor Moon first aired weekday mornings in '94. She's never gone out of her way too much to watch a whole lot until recently; her otaku-dom has always expressed itself in the creative aspect--fanart, original characters, cosplay, and singing/amateur voice acting. She still can't give up Sailor Moon, although the shows that actually cause her to fangirl are chock-full-of-emo dramas with very detailed artwork (namely Le Chevalier D'Eon and Gankutsuoh).
She's NOT a yaoi fangirl. She swears. Finding shounen-ai amusing is not the same as being a yaoi fangirl. She mostly gets amusement from the real fangirls' reactions. Seriously. Got it? And no, living with Shannon is NOT going to change that.

What Erika Says
I can't believe I took so long to join the awesomeness that was Minna. I spent my first two years at Poly as a devoted architecture major and did not join because I didn't want anything to distract from my design work. The result was the breaking of my fragile little mind. I switched to architectural engineering, and decided that I wasn't going to do that anymore. So I joined club shortly before the 2006 Halloween Party.
People still think I'm nuts though. That mainly stems from the Miyazawa Yukino-style obsessive overachieving, lack of sleep, caffeine addiction. Thing is, if you saw me actually WITH enough sleep, I'd be even more hyperactive. Which is scarier, I ask you?
I enjoy just about all anime, minus the stuff that's pure smut. A little is okay, but there has to be plot behind it. Which makes me question why the *$%# I like My-HIME so much. (I couldn't help it! I like cute seifuku...)
I also <3 karaoke. A lot. (another reason why I like My-HIME) I will be attempting to sing the theme song of any show we start by at least the third episode, assuming there's lyrics.
What Others Say
Part of me applauds Erika for managing to hold on to her innocence while living with me. The other part is yelling that I'm not trying hard enough. --The Goddess of Fangirls
